Meal Plans for Spring Semester

To review meal plan options click here.  Changes may be made by emailing mpasko@huntington.edu or downloading the form and submitting it to Margaret in the Student Development Office.  Questions? Contact Margaret Pasko at 359-4026.  All changes need to be made by Tuesday, January 27, 2009.   No changes will be accepted after January 27.

 

J-term meals begin on Monday, January 5, 2009 at breakfast until Sunday, January 25 dinner. J-term Break is January 21 dinner until January 25 dinner and students may eat during this time w/o forfeiting the $100 Flex bonus.  The Spring semester meal plans begin Monday at breakfast on January 26, 2009.

 

Reminder: Meal plans A, B, C, D, and E are all on the A plan during J-term.  If you don't eat over J-term during the above dates (January 5-21) $100 will be credited to your Flex dollars. This is an automatic process usually updated by the 2-3rd week of spring semester.   Those on the E meal plan for fall or spring are not included in the $100 Flex credit option.

Many times students change meal plans over the winter break. Although the meal plans do reset each semester the flex and bonus flex dollars do not. In other words, any flex you have left in the fall will be added to your spring meal plan amounts.
